Yes ,CO2 and Manganese can be fetal if taken or release(in case of CO2) inside the body.

Hypercapnia/hypercapnea or hypercarbia are the different terms used to describe the poisoning of CO2 .

Hypercarbia normally triggers a reflex which increases breathing and access to oxygen,such as arousal and turning the head during sleep.A failure of this can be fatal,as in sudden infant death syndrome.

Hypercapnia is generally defined a s a blood gas CO2 level over 45 mmHg.

Causes

  1. Hypo ventilation
  2. lung disease
  3. diminished consciousness

In case of manganese ,excessive exposure in production unites can may results in many psychiatric and motor disorders termed manganism.

Why carbon monoxide poisonous whereas carbon dioxide is not?

Monoxide is odorless and contains harmful elements in it, that can actually kill a person.


What does carbon dioxide do to your brain?

Carbon dioxide is a simple asphyxiant, which means it affects your health only by displacing oxygen. The only way carbon dioxide can kill you is by decreasing the oxygen your body takes in. Our brains especially need a good flow of oxygen since it is the control center of our life. In other words, carbon dioxide doesn't hurt you, but the lack of oxygen does.


How much carbon dioxide will kill a human?

Victims of carbon dioxide (CO2) poisoning die of hypercapnia, a condition in which there is too high a buildup of carbon dioxide in the blood. Carbon dioxide is a waste product of the metabolic process of cells. It is exhaled by the lungs. Normally, the blood contains 40 mm Hg of CO2. Once the blood contains more than 45 mm Hg of CO2, hypercapnia will start to occur. This disease usually occurs in workers in the mining industry.


What are common uses for carbon dioxide?

-Solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) can be used as refrigeration which is about two times colder than frozen water - Carbon dioxide is used in life jackets to inflate them in case of emergencies and also for activities which require life jackets. -High concentrations of carbon dioxide can also be used to kill pests, such as the common moth ball. -The gas is used commonly to produce carbonated soft drinks such as coke, sprite, Fanta and many more. -It is often used in fire extinguishers and fire blankets etc.


How much carbon dioxide is needed to kill a tree?

yet again: none, trees do not die from carbon dioxide, it is used in combination with light and water in order to synthesize glucose and oxygen, after which at night, they use the glucose and oxygen to live, so by day they produce nutrients with light and by night they use those nutrients to survive until daytime This is not true but i don't know how much exactly it takes to kill a tree but some trees will do die in very high amounts of co2 such as when a volcano starts erupting and realizing high amounts of co2 i will kill a lot of trees and wildlife in the area but i don't know why

The emission of carbon dioxide would determine the survival of life on the earth?

No, it will not ensure that but kill us. It is because the oxygen creating trees take up carbon dioxide to make oxygen.


What can carbon dioxide poising do?

Carbon dioxide is not poisonous but since it isn't oxygen it will kill you in large quantities. carbon monoxide however is actually poisenous, basically it reacts with your body and reduces the amount of oxygen your blood can deliver.

Why descover carbon dioxide?

carbon dioxide of coarse is able to kill a person so scientists are finding gases liquids and solids that are able to kill people and in doing so help prevent it like led if it got inside you you could die but it depends on the dose of the led that entered your body. and carbon dioxide is good too it helps vegetation grow. so it is bad and good but i still wont go sticking your head in a all rich carbon dioxide environment.


Why is it dangerous to run a engine in an enclosed place?

The engine burn oxygen with petrol or diesel which is a combination of carbon and hydrogen. The exhaust gases should be carbon dioxide and water (H2O) in vapour form. There will also be some incomplete combustion which means in stead of just carbon dioxide and water there will be some carbon monoxide and sometimes even carbon (soot). Carbon monoxide is very dangerous us, just small amounts will kill you. While carbon dioxide on the other hand technically can't kill you, in high enough concentrations you can suffer carbon dioxide poisoning. Just like in a locked and air tight sealed room you'll die of carbon dioxide poisoning before you die if oxygen deprevation. So it's down to inhaling the dangerous exhaust fumes. That'll cause you to pass out and then eventually kill you.
